Either forget that you have coded some nice roll-over effects that the majority of people wont see…

Or, add an IE-specific javascript fix.

Does the site jump sideways all the time? This is because IE will ALWAYS reduce the window size and display the scroll bar, even if it is not used. FF wont display it unless it is required (as it should be).
OK, this is the ‘wrong way solution’, but it solves the problem. Force the scrollbar in FF.

?View Code CSS
html { height: 100%; margin-bottom: 1px; }

Sorted!
